&lt;!-- TWO STEPS TO INSTALL IGNORE SPACES:

  1.  Copy the coding into the HEAD of your HTML document
  2.  Add the last code into the BODY of your HTML document  --&gt;

&lt;!-- STEP ONE: Paste this code into the HEAD of your HTML document  --&gt;

&lt;HEAD&gt;

&lt;SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"&gt;

&lt;! &gt;

&lt;!-- Begin
function ignoreSpaces(string) {
var temp = "";
string = '' + string;
splitstring = string.split(" ");
for(i = 0; i &lt; splitstring.length; i++)
temp += splitstring[i];
return temp;
}
//  End --&gt;
&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/HEAD&gt;

&lt;!-- STEP TWO: Copy this code into the BODY of your HTML document  --&gt;

&lt;BODY&gt;

Before:  String = x xx xxx xxxx&lt;br&gt;
 After:  String = &lt;script language="JavaScript"&gt;
